In this paper, an input-series auxiliary power supply scheme is proposed, which is suitable for high input voltage and multiple-output applications. The power supply scheme is based on a two-transistor forward topology, all of the series modules have a common duty ratio, all the switches are turned on and off simultaneously, and the whole circuit has a single power transformer. It does not require an additional controller but still achieves efficient input voltage sharing (IVS) for each series module through its inherent transformer-integration strategy. The IVS process of this power supply scheme is analyzed in detail and the design considerations for the related parameters are given. Finally, a 100W multiple-output auxiliary power supply prototype is built, and the experimental results verify the feasibility of the proposed scheme and the validity of the theoretical analysis.

In this paper, a 20W class multi-output QR flyback converter for auxiliary power supply was designed to stabilize 4 output voltages, and the efficiency and load characteristics were compared and analyzed. It was checked if each output affects other output characteristics through experiment. As a result, the experimental circuit reached a high efficiency of 82.5% or more at a load power of over 20W, and the maximum power loss was 2.6W. Consequently, it was confirmed that all of 4 output voltages of the multi-output QR flyback converter constructed in this paper were stabilized within 0.5% in full-load range, and each output was independently controlled in an electrically isolated state.

In this paper, aiming at high-voltage applications, transformer windings schemes of multiple-output two-transistor flyback converters are investigated, which are mainly based on the stray capacitances effect. First, based on a transformer model including equivalent stray capacitors, the operational principle of the converter is presented, and the main influence of its stay capacitors is determined. Second, the windings structures of the transformer are analyzed and designed based on the stray capacitances effect. Third, the windings arrangements of the transformer are analyzed and designed through a coupling analysis of the secondary windings and a stray capacitance analysis between the primary and secondary windings. Finally, the analysis and design conclusions are verified by experimental results obtained from a 60W laboratory prototype of a multiple-output two-transistor flyback converter.

Multiple output converters can be utilized when various output voltages are required in applications. Recently, one of the multiple output converters called fly-buck has been proposed, and has attracted attention due to the advantage that multiple output can be easily obtained with a simple structure. When constant on-time (COT) control is applied, the output ripple voltage must be treated carefully for control stability and voltage regulation characteristics in consideration of the inherent energy transfer characteristics of the fly-buck converter. This study analyzes the operation principle of the fly-buck converter with a ripple generation network and presents the design guideline for the improved output voltage regulation. Validity of the analysis and design guideline is verified using a 5 W prototype of the COT controlled fly-buck converter with a ripple generation network for telecommunication auxiliary power supply.

As a result of the recent advances in magnetic materials, the Magnetic Amplifier(Magamp) technique is one of the reliable and cost-effective postregulation method for multiple-output power supply. This is true for high-current postregulated output since at highter output current the efficiency of linear postregulation is unacceptably low, while the complexity of more efficient switch mode postregulator is associated with a significant cost. Magamp have some advantages of higher power density, simple control circuit, good regulation, high frequency and high performance. In this paper, Operation principle of proposed approach and a performance of magamp control circuit with TL431 is described. The comparative analysis of magamp circuit and buck regulator circuit with 20W load condition is conducted. Experimental verifications on multi-output flyback converter are conducted. Simulations and experimental results show that the proposed approach is efficiency and voltage regulation of the auxiliary output is excellent.

In this paper, a generalized efficiency equation was proposed to estimate the internal loss of the SMPS (switched-mode power supply) with 3 variables. The first variable was an internal loss not related to the load current such as auxiliary power, the second was a loss proportional to the current such as diode loss, and the third was a loss proportional to square of the current such as conduction loss. Especially, theoretical internal losses of the totem pole bridgeless PFC which is widely used for high efficiency SMPS were expressed as output function to compare generalized efficiency equation. In addition, in order to reduce the conduction loss of the switch, when a multiple switch were paralleled, the correlation with the efficiency was analyzed and shown as a graph. In order to confirm the degree of the parallel switch structure on the efficiency improvement, a 2kW class totem pole bridgeless PFC was constructed and the effectiveness of the analysis was confirmed by comparing the generalized efficiency equation and theoretical loss analysis results with experimental data.

일반적으로 전동차 보조전원장치의 출력전원 품질에 영향을 주는 주된 요인으로는 짧은 시간동안의 진폭변조로 인한 전압플리커 현상과 전동차 내부의 공기압축기 및 냉난방 환기장치 등 대용량 전동기의 반복적인 구동 등을 들 수 있다. 본 연구는 전동차내의 형광등의 전원과 관련된 플리커 현상에 대해 내장재 개조 후 형광등 32W와 개조 전 40W를 입력전원(AC220V)의 변동에 따른 광 출력(밝기) 로서 계측 비교하였다. 또한, 전압변동을 유발하는 부하변동의 주된 요인을 파악하기 위해 전동차 운행시간과 운행밀도를 고려하여 플리커 현상을 분석하였다. 연구결과, 개조 후 형광등 32W에 비해 40W 형광등이 입력전원의 변화에 대해 육안인식정도 측면에서는 20.26% 정도 덜 민감하게 반응함을 알 수 있었으며, 심한 플리커가 일어나는 전압의 경우도 19.9%로 더 낮게 측정되었다. 또한, 운행차량의 부하변동 영향에 있어서는 주로 영업차량의 운행밀도가 높고, 이용승객이 많은 혼합시간대에 보조전원장치(SIV)의 출력전압 변동으로 인한 객실형광등 플리커가 발생된다는 사실을 확인할 수 있었다. 더불어, 전동차 이용승객이 육안으로 형광등의 깜박임을 민감하게 느낄 수 있는 가능 주파수대역으로서 $8Hz{\sim}15Hz$ 임을 확인하였다.

지리적 특성상, 도서지역에 전력을 공급하기 위해서 ICG(Internal combustion generation)가 사용되고 있으며, 이로 인하여 상당한 운영비, 염해문제 및 환경오염이 발생하고 있다. 이러한 도서지역에 대해서, KEPCO는 매년 상당한 운영결손액을 감당하고 있는데, 특히 연료비 및 지급수수료가 운영결손액의 상당 부분을 차지하고 있다. 특히, 지급수수료를 줄이기 위하여 근거리 도서 사이의 해저케이블을 통한 ICG 통합운영(integrated ICG, IICG)이 고려되고 있다. 한편, 저탄소 사회에 대한 수요 때문에 도서지역에 분산형전원(Distributed Generation, DG)이 도입되고 있다. 이러한 상황에서, 환경적 특성으로 인해 DG 출력이 불충분한 경우 보조 동력원으로 IICG가 사용되는, 즉, IICG에 DG를 도입한 하이브리드 내연발전(hybrid internal combustion generation, HICG)이 도입되고 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 HICG에서 한전 운영결손액에 상응하게 도입될 수 있는 최적 DG 용량을 산정하는 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과, 연료비와 최대부하 크기는 최적 DG 용량에 큰 영향을 미치며, 최대부하가 서로 다른 여러 도서에 제안된 알고리즘을 적용하여 그 유효성을 확인하였다.
